Early in the afternoon on Thursday, it was reported that a death had occurred at the famed studio, but details were vague. A representative from the Carver County Sheriff's Department in Minneapolis said that a press release would be released soon.

Last week, while returning from a show in Atlanta, the singer was hospitalized after his plane was forced to land, reportedly because of flu symptoms, but he was released a few hours later. Days later, after his hospital release, it was reported that he was seen around town riding his bicycle.
